"Brother Temple! I'll head to class first then." Beichuan Huili waved at Beichuan Si and ran off.

Her face was full of liveliness.

Seeing her smiling face, seemingly unaware of her real situation, Beichuan Si felt a bit reassured.

The initial objective was achieved. What matters next is tonight's specific actions.

"We'll talk about those things later."

Beichuan Si mumbled and continued walking inside.

But...

Beichuan Si stopped in his tracks, thoughtfully gazing around.

Something seemed strange at Kyubei High School today.

The gazes coming from all around made Beichuan Si frown.

Usually, because of the title 'Kyubei North Demon King', students would look at him like this, just turning their eyes over...

But today was different.

Today, apart from fear and awe, there was another layer of meaning in their eyes.

That was—

Curiosity.

This curiosity wasn't just from one or two people.

Almost all the gazes cast over carried a sense of curiosity.

Beichuan Si felt a trace of inexplicable confusion in his heart.

However, he couldn't just beat someone up because they looked at him twice...

Thinking of this, Beichuan Si shook his head, kept his back straight, and continued walking forward.

Soon, he was stopped by a girl from his class.

This girl wore glasses, her face wasn't particularly delicate, and her body trembled when she blocked him, clearly a bit scared.

But she still managed to stop him.

"Morioka Youko?" Beichuan Si showed a look of surprise.

The girl blocking him was indeed Morioka Youko, the little girl responsible for carrying out the people who fainted in front of the haunted house at the Kyubei Festival last time.

Beichuan Si's impression of her was quite good, as she had excellently completed her task during the last haunted house project.

But since then, there shouldn't have been any interaction between them.

Beichuan Si couldn't help but stop, looking at Morioka Youko, waiting for her to state her purpose.

Under the gaze of the 'Kyubei North Demon King', Morioka Youko felt as if she had inexplicably shrunk.

However, she quickly seemed to think of something, gritted her teeth, pulled out a whiteboard, and her voice rang out simultaneously.

"Um... Beichuan, Beichuan! Please give me an autograph!"

"Huh?"

Beichuan Si raised his eyebrows.

Give you an autograph?

What kind of situation is this?

...

First-year Class B, Beichuan Huili's class.

She was in almost the same situation as Beichuan Si.

No... no... it was far worse than Beichuan Si's situation.

"Huili! Do you know Nakajima Michika?"

"Please get me an autograph!"

"Me too!"

"????" Beichuan Huili.

Looking at the crowd in front of her, with even students from other classes joining in, Beichuan Huili had no idea what was going on.

Fortunately, in her moment of confusion, Otomoto Ai suddenly stood up, pulled her out of the classroom, and quickly went into the girls' restroom, saving her from being swallowed by the crowd.

Her other friends were waiting for her in the restroom.

As soon as she came in, the girls gathered around.

"What exactly happened? What are all these people about?" Beichuan Huili was dumbfounded.

She had no clue what was going on.

Her usually indifferent classmates suddenly swarmed her, leaving her dumbstruck.

"...Huili, you don't know?" Sakura Miori opened her mouth: "I think I messaged you and Brother Temple on LIEN yesterday."

"Yesterday, Brother Temple came back late... Besides, I ate, watched some TV, and almost fell asleep, so I didn't even use my phone."

Beichuan Huili scratched her head: "What's going on? Just now I heard Shihua's name..."

"..."

The group exchanged glances, then Sakurai Saki took out her phone, swiped her finger, and showed the message to Nakajima Michika.

The bright phone screen displayed the following—

'A young man suspected to be Nakajima Michika's boyfriend spotted outside her hospital room?'

'Shocking truth! Nakajima Michika's boyfriend? (Doubtful)'

'...'

Alongside these messages was a blurry photo of a young man.

But both Beichuan Huili, Sakurai Saki, and practically everyone at Kyubei High School knew exactly who the person in the photo was.

Kyubei North Demon King! Beichuan Si!

"Brother Temple?!" Beichuan Huili shouted.

She finally understood.

Why so many students came to her, why they asked her for Nakajima Michika's autograph...

"Look at that angle, and the blurriness... Brother Temple must have been secretly photographed. The main thing is..." Sakura Miori pointed at the photo.

The gaze of Beichuan Si in the photo seemed to be faintly looking towards the camera.

"From such a distance... Brother Temple actually vaguely noticed it..."

At the time, Beichuan Si appeared to be deep in thought, so he just briefly glanced at the camera.

"This makes things a bit complicated."

Takiyama Nanako blinked next to her, her voice slightly strained.

With Nakajima Michika being the most popular young diva in the music scene, the attention she received was naturally overwhelming.

"This sudden revelation... it's bound to affect Brother Temple, right?"

Otomoto Ai murmured softly.

Indeed.

She was a national diva, Nakajima Michika, with many songs listed as golden hits.
